SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 87

Corruption Hunter (1)

silent war.

There was an uproar as others, as well as those who first discovered the vendor, soon caught on to the information.

Gathering all the funds of the guild, in order not to attract the attention of ordinary users, he directed one person to buy equipment by driving funds, but that was not what Lokan wanted.

Limited number of purchases per person.

By changing the vendor settings, several users were forced to come.

Some items even put restrictions on the purchased race. It would have been difficult if high-level goblin users did not appear.

For that reason, those who came first could only purchase up to two items, and soon the guild’s elite gathered in front of the vendors by collecting loans from all guild members.

“Hi ”

Lokan appeared in front of them.

“Fuck.”

“Why is that bastard here?”

People who had gathered to buy goods spit out swear words all at once.

Still, I tried to quickly manipulate the shop window to purchase the desired item.

“Berserk!”

Lokan wasn’t the only one to let it go.

First of all, goblins.

There was no way to stop Lokan from attacking along the thoroughly calculated movement.

Some even gave up their resistance and concentrated on purchasing goods, so the dozens of users who had gathered had no choice but to be slaughtered without having to raise their level.

[You have obtained the Goblin Blood.][You have acquired Orc Blood.][You have acquired the blood of a troll.][You have obtained the blood of the undead.]

It may be misunderstood to say that it is the blood of the undead, but the users were not yet in a ‘skeleton’ state.

As the level went up and promoted later, the warrior changed to a death knight and the wizard to a lich, but it still felt like a zombie or a ghoul.

So even rotten blood can be obtained.

‘Good.’

It’s not like the users give 100% monster blood, but they’ve been lucky.

I thought I might have to repeat this a few times if I had to, but luckily, I got all the blood in one slaughter.

In addition, they also got the items they dropped as a bonus, and the unlucky ones dropped as soon as they bought the items from the vendor, so it was a benefit in many ways.

“Vendor Release.”

And, brutally, they even eliminated the vendor. It’s like killing a vendor you bought with money, but you can’t do good things for others, right?

After all, they threw the rice cakes, so the users of the Black Dragonflight would have believed that the time had run out, or that Lokan killed the vendor.

In that way, the special merchant NPC was left only as a legend.

“Search for a hundred days, come out.”

Black Dragonflight users who do not know the English language seem to be asking everywhere, believing that the special merchant NPC must have moved to another place and appear, but to no avail.Belatedly, there were those who would protest the game company, citing the fairness with Crossroads, but it was obvious without seeing the game company’s reaction.

Because it was obvious that I would just repeat the words, ‘I can’t confirm.’

This is because the moment the user reveals that it is a vendor installed, it interferes with the user’s normal play.

Knowing the inquiries, protests, and answers that were repeated countless times in his previous life, Lokan went to Harban without any worries.

“You are so great! It has greatly increased my standing in the Kinsington Council!”

The task of collecting the blood of 44 monsters was actually only possible at level 190.

It was a difficult and difficult quest to the extent that there were those who received about level 190 and took it slowly to level 198.

However, it was completed so quickly that Harban, who gave the commission, also had a voice in the Kinsington Assembly.

‘Maybe this guy isn’t going to the center either’

And if you achieve these results, you may be freed from the tertiary city dispatch, which is a relegation person.

Although the relationship improved quite a bit by completing the race quest quickly, it was not pleasant for such a person to follow to the center.

“Come on, take this. A letter of appreciation from the Kinsington Council to you.”

[You have leveled up.]

While he was worried, what Harban brought out was a letter of appreciation from the Kinsington Parliament.

In hindsight, it was just a useless piece of paper that didn’t raise one’s ability, but isn’t that the case with all the people of high rank? The profit is their own, and they are trying to cover it up with words and honor.

I felt sorry for it, but it was useful later as it was.

First of all, thanks to the large amount of experience gained as a reward, I was satisfied with raising the level by one.

“If you ever go to the center later, please do your best for the Kinsington Council once more. To restore our human glory!”

“all right. I will definitely do that.”

With this, all the racial quests that can be done in the 3rd city are over.

“It’s a little vague.”

Currently, Lokan’s level is 189.

It was a slightly ambiguous figure to move on to the ‘central’, which can also be called the 4th city.

There is still one thing left to do, but even if it is completed, it will be only a little over level 190, so it is burdensome to move on.

“Just get over it”

Unlike the tertiary city, there was no level limit for going beyond the ‘central’.

Even if it was not level 199, it was possible to move, and there are some level 190 level monsters in the center, so it is not unreasonable to shoot up to level 199 there.

There was, however, one problem with the transition to the center itself.

“alone… … Is it possible?”

You have to get on the liner in the port you saw while going hunting for the armored turtle, and while sailing, underwater monsters are attacking you.

If you are very lucky, you can get through it safely, but there is a 98% chance that a monster attack has occurred.

And to deal with them all alone, even Rokhan was not confident.

Not only are the attacking guys all around level 190, but there are also those who attack without coming out of the water at all.

That’s why Lokan tried to level up as close to level 199 as possible and then try.

“Let’s start with that and think about it.”

Lokan, who had been immersed in thought for a moment, realized that the odds were never going to come, and he prepared for his final challenge on the crossroads.

“Buy goods.”

He toured the shops and auction houses, purchasing consumables and supplies generously.

In addition to combat related items, there were also a number of items related to homelessness, such as tents and safety guards.

If you are lucky, you can finish it quickly, but if you are not lucky, it may take several days, so prepare thoroughly.

“I want to hire mercenaries.”

The next place I found was the Mercenary Guild.

In this place where you can hire mercenaries, or you can become a mercenary and receive quests, Lokan hired a mercenary with the highest level possible.

“I am level 180 mercenary barrier warrior Gouki.”

“I’m Miyuki, the level 180 mercenary guide.”

A whopping level 180 mercenary.

The level of mercenaries that can be hired depends on the level of the employee, so at the moment, Lokan was the only one that could hire a level 180 mercenary.

‘It’s expensive, it’s too expensive.’

Of course, he boasted a high ransom commensurate with it.

1 gold per hour.

He was able to earn enough money if he chose a hunting ground suitable for his level and hunted without rest, but considering the travel time, it was by no means cheap.

Moreover, because they hired two, the price was doubled. There was no contract for the term of employment, so he did not know how much he would be paid.

If not for Rokhan, he was an unthinkable piece of money.

“Let’s go.”

What’s even worse is that you can’t use rune books with mercenaries. He was told that he had to go on foot, so it sounded like money coming out.

The good news is that the destination is about an hour’s walk away.

As I moved 2 gold to the ground, a certain ruin appeared.

“Let’s go in.”

It was a place that many people have already visited, but now it is also a place that no one visits.

When I went in, there was nothing, let alone a treasure or a dungeon entrance.

The entrance was opened only when special conditions were met, and no matter how many times it was opened, it was different from what was expected, so after visiting several times, it was not looking for any more.

But Rokhan already knew the secrets of this place.

“Once to the left.”

The inside of the ruins was very ordinary. Appropriate ornaments were scattered everywhere, and the atmosphere inside was gloomy.

And there is a crossroads that cannot be missed.

Moving to the left at the first fork, Lokan came to a point and looked back at the mercenaries.

“Gouki-san, you are stepping here. Never take your feet off him. Whatever happens.”

“all right.”

They could be trusted because they were NPC mercenaries with artificial intelligence. And it’s okay not to feel guilty.

“Miyuki-san is also here.”

Lokan traversed the path again, and this time entered the opposite path. He put Miyuki on the back of a stool that looked the same.

Kugugu Palace.

Then there was a vibration that shook the entire ruins.

“Stay there. Whatever happens.””all right.”

Was he expecting something? Miyuki didn’t take his foot off him, pulled out his weapon and looked around.

Meanwhile, Lokan returned to the fork in the road.

“Whoa, shall we start?”

There was only one thing that had changed when I came back.

It’s just that a piece that looks like someone’s face is protruding slightly.

It was a difference that could have been overlooked without a good eyebrow, but Lokan, who had already known and came to see it, could not miss it.

He raised his battle ax high and smashed his head in a single blow.

Kugu Palace.

Kee hey hey!

It was also at the same time that the reverberation of the ghost echoed throughout the ruins. Green smoke rose from the shattered statue, and at the same time the walls around Rokhan shook.

[Gatekeeper Golem][Lv 163]

A mini stone golem measuring 2 meters in size appeared in all directions.

When the guys with red, yellow, green, and blue marbles in their chests moved, Lokan also started their activities.

“strike!”

It was foolish to hit a stone golem with a sharpened weapon. Of course, the blade will be damaged and it will be difficult to give a proper blow.

However, such a general theory was applicable only to ordinary people.

damn!

In one shot, the body of the stone golem collapsed and the marbles flashed. At the same time as the regeneration was accomplished, they poured out magics containing their own attributes towards Lokan.

They weren’t just mini golems, they were magic golems.

“Where!”

Although it was a small space, Lokan glided and flexibly avoided them.

He fired a bombardment to halt the action, then stuck with a reef attack and slammed the Battle Ax down.

[You have acquired the Brain Orb.]

When the core was completely removed, the action stopped.

Same goes for the rest of the golems. Instead of destroying the marble, he made it irresistible and then ripped it off and the action stopped.

“Are you holding up well?”

Having collected all four marbles in that way, Lokan moved to the side of the statue he had broken and worried about it belatedly.

Monsters must be pouring out not only here, but also in the room where the two mercenaries are.

Yes, I’m only at level 170, but I don’t know if I’m doing well because I’m competing with quantity.

But I had no intention of helping.

The moment they took their feet off the scaffolding, they had to repeat the same action from the beginning again, so they just put four marbles in the empty hole behind the statue.

Curl rumble.

Then, once again, a change occurred. The wall cracked and the entrance opened.

“Come back.”

Lokan carelessly pressed the [Call] button in the mercenary management window and stepped inside.

From now on it was real.
